“At Christmas be Mery”

“At Christmas be mery”: A Special Evening Celebration at Historic Jamestowne

Location: Program begins at the Historic Jamestowne Visitor Center

A unique opportunity to see Jamestown Island aglow with firelight, “At Christmas be Mery” explores the origins of traditions we now commonly associate with the holiday season, including hanging evergreens, caroling, and observing the winter solstice. Visitors are invited to step back in time to 1621 to join Sir Francis Wyatt, the colony’s newly arrived Governor, for an early Virginia Christmas celebration with costumed interpreters, a cappella performances, and caroling. More details and ticket information coming soon.
